Mind Mesmerizes or Messes up...!

One of the economists said that "Discovery of America and India" is the most turning points in the history of civilized economy.
Given the question what would be or what was the most fatal thing in the world? Is it the world war, is it the epidemic... 
I would say the moment we read the mind of the other. It is deadly even to think about it and how fatal it would be if others can read my mind, thoughts and intentions. If so violence will prevail over the civilization and the civilization would be left toothless, one-eyed, one-legged and one ear left for all...That is why Gandhi years ago said "If violence prevails then the society will be left only with blind people. 

How wonderful is God by making us so unique and amazing. Particularly bestowing the humanity with graces necessary for survival. Mind sens signals and thus body organs are operated and stabilized according to the stability of the environment. Perhaps why Mind is so unique that it operates the entire body. Hence, we need to develop the peace of mind. This strategy will make us live life in harmony with our neighbours and the environment. If not mind could also lead us to lunatic tendencies of obsession and imbalance of behaviors. Thus we at times loose the control of our emotions and expression which results as a Bi-polar sickness. Hence, training one's mind is a prerequisite for sound body and sound mind. Thus we lead a healthy life having a psycho-somatic balance.

A Poor Teacher....

Image
We all know a famous saying "A good teacher teaches. A better teacher exhorts and the best teacher inspires." Fortunate if you have such teachers who walk into your student life. For sure they teach, encourage and inspire you to become better and the best. Unfortunate if you have poor and pathetic teachers who neither teach nor prepare for the class. Such teachers do come into our student life who paradoxically inspire by their despair. Strange but true. But to reach to this aptitude one requires an open mind and heart to accept the things that they cannot change but change one self instead. However, what I want to say is that today during two hours of class we experienced such poor and pathetic performance of a professor who only talked and taught nothing. Plenty of words bla bla bla....I just had a look around the class that was packed with students but then, most of them were all like as if suffocated and some constipated and still worse few were indifferent catching th

WOMAN/SHAKTI/EMPOWERMENT...!

Right at the outset, I admit that I am not a staunch feminist, yet this presumption doesn’t stop me whispering the truth of my inner voice. As someone said “say the truth and run away”, I do not mean such assumption despite the fact that I, a male, writing on such a significant phenomenon woman .           One cannot but accept the significant role of a woman in building a family or a society. Hence, we must appreciate woman’s contribution in nation building. Neither the governments, nor the civil or church laws build families. Instead, it is a woman who builds the family. If so, why there are rapes, domestic violence, and female-foeticide, divorce and unjust wages? State or religion is no exception. Hence, we must question the system, because if the system is corrupt what can we hope for? Hindu, Islam, Judeo-christian systems and the Greek, Roman, Eastern civilizations were all part of this inequality without being judgemental. Let us now get into the heart of the matter.

MEANING AS CONSTITUTIVE OF COMMUNICATION AND COMMUNION: LONERGAN

Image
Today seeking meaning in life is a common phenomenon that we all come across. Now it is sought in things, gadgets, celebrities, movies, sports, drinks, music, business and what not. Thus we have reached a state where meaning is to be found very instantly and immediately. The picture aptly depicts the attitude of today’s new generation where meaning is to be found totally out side the self and end up terribly disappointed, discouraged and disgusted. Some prominent examples can be that of Michael Jackson, Whiney Houston, Marilyn Monroe and Tiger Woods etc. What was missing in their life? What could be the reason why they failed to strike the balance between life/career and meaning? In this multimedia era finding meaning is very crucial and challenging. In this context Victor Frankel is one person who inspires me with his life; in spite of struggles he lived his life with a purpose. In this regard there are so many others like, Hellen Keller, Mother Teresa, John Paul II, Steve Jobbs
